Sponsored by River City Bicycles

Join us at Stub Stewart along with our friends and generous sponsor River City Bicyles for the third and final installment of the NW Trail Sisters Training Series where we will be continuing what we started in the skills zone.

This outdoor education series is made possible through a generous grant from Travel Oregon.

What are we doing?: The day will involve hands-on practice building drops, jumps, and berms. (Subject to change slightly depending on conditions.)

What is this “training series?”: The series is a set of dig days dedicated to building skills and confidence. We have three dig days scheduled at multiple locations where Trail Sisters crew leads alongside Local Stewardship Teams will cover the technical aspects of trail building and sustainable maintenance in a fun and supportive environment.

We welcome all women and non-binary folks interested in trail building to join us! No prior digging experience is necessary.

Waiver: Once registered, please sign the waiver HERE.

What to bring:

Warm clothing and extra layers.

Rain jacket (and rain pants if you have them and the weather calls for it): It’s January in the PNW, odds are high it’ll rain, but that doesn’t stop us from digging!

Gloves (waterproof are best): It wouldn’t hurt to bring an extra pair, too. Cold hands suck! We have extras if needed.

Sturdy shoes

Helmet or hard hat (required)

Eye protection

Water

Snacks and lunch

Bike and bike gear for post-dig rips

Appetite for food provided by our dear friends at River City Bicycles!

Any necessary tools will be provided. You are not required to bring any of your own.

More specific details about the event will be emailed to those who signed up closer to the date.

These events are very popular and sell out quickly. If you are unable to attend for any reason, please cancel your registration with AT LEAST 24 hours notice so others on the waitlist have an opportunity to come. If you are reading this and the event is sold out, join the waitlist! A few folks will likely cancel the day before.

Join NWTA and become one of nearly 6,000 mountain bikers stewarding trails together in NW Oregon and SW Washington. If the cost of membership creates a financial hardship, please reach out to us, we can help with that barrier.
